Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, embodiments and a method. The method includes iteratively providing messages to each Node Processor. Each Node Processor represents a node of a group of nodes. The iteratively providing of the messages comprises providing first messages. Each first message includes a cost associated with a path of nodes visited by each first message. A selected path is obtained from each node having a lowest cost of a group of common endpoint costs for paths having common endpoints. A next group of messages includes the selected path. The iteratively providing of the messages results in selected paths. Also, the method include determining a target path from a remaining path. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: A method includes receiving, at an access point, an access request from a first device after an expiration of a first passcode. The access request is encrypted based on the first passcode. The method includes making a determination by the access point before an expiration of a usage time of a first passcode usage list that an identifier of the first device is included in the first passcode usage list. The method also includes, in response to making the determination, generating, at the access point, data representing a second passcode by encrypting the second passcode using the first passcode; and sending the data representing the second passcode from the access point to the first device.

Abstract: Facilitation of communication of radio resource quality to a mobile application is provided. In one example, a method comprises: determining, by a device coupled to a processor, a peak-to-average loading ratio of a loading of a radio of a base station device and a mobility factor of the radio, wherein the loading relates to an amount of data being handled by the radio; and determining, by the device, class information for the radio of the base station device, wherein the class information comprises a value indicative of the peak-to-average loading ratio and the mobility factor of the radio, wherein the class information is correlatable to a bit rate at which a mobile device is to execute an application of a mobile device, and wherein the radio is communicatively coupled to the mobile device.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for initiating a medicine control action are disclosed. For example, the method implemented via a processor receives at least one picture, the at least one picture comprising an image of one or more pills and a respective prescription bottle of each one of the one or more pills, determines the medicine control action is required in response to the receiving the at least one picture, establishes a data connection with an endpoint device in response to the determining, and initiates the medicine control action over the data connection to the endpoint device.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, detect a first user interaction with a control button, disable an initiation of an action for a communication service, detect a second user interaction with the icon, and transmit an identification signal to a second communication device that causes the second communication device to present identification information describing the action for the communication service. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: Example devices are disclosed. For example, a device may include a processor, a plurality of translation lookaside buffers, a plurality of switches, and a memory management unit. Each of the translation lookaside buffers may be assigned to a different process of the processor, each of the plurality of switches may include a register for storing a different process identifier, and each of the plurality of switches may be associated with a different one of the translation lookaside buffer buffers. The memory management unit may be for receiving a virtual memory address and a process identifier from the processor and forwarding the process identifier to the plurality of switches. Each of the plurality of switches may be for connecting the memory management unit to a translation associated with the switch when there is a match between the process identifier and the different process identifier stored by the register of the switch.

Abstract: A domain and a mobile device may exchange data via a radio access node included in a mobile network. During a time of peak demand, a data load level of the radio access node may exceed a threshold. To accommodate the peak demand, historical types and volumes of data may be used to manage a data rate related to data associated with the domain. Based on the historical information, the data rate for a mobile device, a radio access node, a range of time, or a data type may be controlled. The data rate may be managed by a network gateway, such as a gateway included in the mobile network.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a system and method, for determining whether to run a local application or a remote application, including retrieving, by a processor of a mobile device, metadata for a remote application that executes on the mobile device, determining power requirements from the metadata for a data connection with a remote server that provides services to support execution of the remote application, calculating if the power requirements for the data connection exceeds a remaining charge of a battery of the mobile device, and executing the remote application responsive to the power requirements for the data connection being less than the remaining charge of the battery. Other embodiments are disclosed.
